Character Name: Zaigon Carter
Nickname: The Reckoning
Hometown: Billings, Montana by way of Chicago, Illinois
Height: 6’3
Weight: 240
Alignment: Heel
In-Ring Style: So a lot of the same style is pertinent. For context, it was 2002-2003 Triple H reign of terror stuff. Under the guidance/spell of Dr. Milgram however, things are slightly different. He's now much more aggressive and violent. So a bigger emphasis on the power moves, unafraid of weapons. Also submissions as a more common part of the arsenal, though less in a Zack Sabre Jr way and more in a "I just want you to suffer" way. This isn't perfect, but if WWE Samoa Joe had gotten to wrestle in like 98 ECW. Not a bad baseline.
Bio: Zaigon Carter hasn’t wrestled in many years, taking forced exile from wrestling. The son of a wealthy businessman who died when Mr. Carter was a teenager, money has largely not been a concern. In his time away from the ring, he retreated to the opposite of the highly urban area he spent most of his pre exile life in. He’s been watching, scheming, planning, and waiting. Waiting for the right moment to come out of the shadows and into the spotlight. The time away has hardened, changed, and in a way warped him. After winning the APW World Title then losing it in his first defense, he signed a lucrative deal with Action Wrestling that was later voided due to medical concerns. After treatment under Dr. Marcel Milgram who became his manager, Metal GM Masuda Jubei signed Carter to a lucrative deal to return with his first match back at Liberty or Death 2021.
Attire: Outside the ring suits always. Not flashy ones either. Navy/black with a white dress shirt, no tie(it gives him more control). No tan, no green, those don’t work. Rolex watch, platinum not gold. Nothing cheap, but not garish. In the ring, long tights in those same either navy or black colors. A trio of white stars on one hip, maybe a red stripe under them.
Theme song: "Dead and Bloated" by Stone Temple Pilots
Pic Base: Frank Grillo
Entrance: The arena goes dark, before being bathed in dark red light as the opening lyrics from "Dead and Bloated" by Stone Temple Pilots begins.
I am smellin' like the rose
That somebody gave me on
My birthday deathbed
I am smellin' like the rose
That somebody gave me
'Cause I'm dead & bloated
As the guitar crash hits, the lights shift to a flashing white strobe as out from the back come Zaigon Carter and Dr. Marcel Milgram. Dr. Milgram grabs Carter by the neck, putting their foreheads together saying something to him before letting go while pointing towards the ring. Carter storms towards the ring, as Dr. Milgram follows a step or two behind with an arrogant smile on his face.
"Being accompanied by Dr. Marcel Milgram, weighing in at 240 lbs. He is the Reckoning...Zaigon Carter!"
Carter is standing in the middle of the ring now, bathed in that same eerie red light as earlier. Dr. Milgram doesn't enter the ring, but stands in front of his charge with a self assured look.
Favorite moves: Spinebuster
Clotheslines
Chop block
Octopus stretch
Falling inverted DDT
Signature move(s): Crisis: Full Nelson Slam
Endgame: Vertical drop brainbuster
Finisher(s): Shatterskull: Tiger Driver 91
Final Act: King Crab Lock(Double leg trap guillotine choke)
Ultimate finisher: Ultimatum: Argentine Piledriver(or a Psycho Driver if you’re a Super Dragon fan). This is an absolute kill shot, only to be used when necessary. Is more likely to be used to harm someone in a precarious way such as on the apron, exposed concrete, any of the wrestling standbys you remember.
Manager (optional): Dr. Marcel Milgram. His personal doctor and manager, Dr. Milgram met Zaigon after an injury at AW's Turmoil event. Their relationship was solidified after that, although with consequences. It's less a partnership and more a controlling situation.
